Um, what the hell. em the most widely used? I hardly would
consider the gigabit eth driver most intel chips the most widely
used. rl, ed, fxp by far seem to be the majority of the share I
have observed. In fact, I didn't even know the em driver till you
mentioned it. Being a network admin and dealing with many and 
various machines, I see quite a few nics. And as long as the cards 
work under project-evil which I have heard a feeling they (correct
me if I am wrong please so I can update my own list of known to 
work hardware), seems fair enough to go to release.
